Surprise Surprise!

Hello Friends!

We are back!!!!!






























Did you miss us? : )

We missed this space and after a HUGE eventful year, decided to start up again.
It has been one of those big whirlwind years, so we thought we would give you a blurb about each of us and go from there. Sound ok?


Queen Charlotte of the Land of Fashion:






























Charlotte spent the last year creating and selling her stuffies in countless successful shows, online and through her Etsy. She also lovingly made our cute little wedding cake toppers,




















































yes they were bridal felted birdies.  Her line Truly Charlotte has really taken off! After a splurge of creative energy, along with Leah and my Mom she designed and created vintage bathing suits. This passion for creating clothing sparked her into contemplating design school, which led her to becoming accepted in Richard Robinson's Fashion Design school! She is in her first year in the program, and we cannot wait until she is creating her own clothing line.

Princess Leah of the Coiffed Hair






























After a very full year of classes, Leah is now apprenticing as a hairstylist in a local salon called Westboro Spa. She has been practising on family members (yayyy!!!) and has really done a fantastic job at perfecting the trade.























































She now has her own chair at the salon and is accepting clients, which is a very big accomplishment in the world of hair! We are so proud! On top of all her busy learning and working,  Leah accomplished a massive feat this year, one I will be eternally grateful.  As a gift for my wedding she did all the hair of bridesmaids, flower girls and MINE, was a supportive bridesmaid and played her violin through the ceremony. Oh and she did all this with complete ease!

Mrs. Renee of the Newly Married





























I was married January 3, 2015 on a very wintery day.  It was an absolutely fun, joy filled day, full of so much love.




























With great help from our families and friends, we pulled off a wedding for 150 people ( plus lots of dance guests)  and kept it all within our budget at $10,000. Happy dance! : ) It was the biggest DIY project we have ever done, and we learned so much. I plan on sharing what worked and what didn't on the blog, so stay tuned.


We have a lot of hair ideas, fashion, DIY projects, books, and so much more to share with you all. Thank you especially to all of you dear friends who took the time to encourage us and share how much you loved this little blog. We are grateful. x
